Brimstage Hall is a medieval pele or fortified tower in the tiny hamlet of Brimstage at the heart of Wirral. Brimstage or "Brunstath" was originally the home of the Domville family who obtained a licence in 1398 to build a small chapel or oratory, probably at the base of the tower. The original hall, apart from the tower was demolished in 1560 and the present building erected.

Brimstage is a small, mostly rural community centred on a small village green, consisting of Brimstage Hall, numerous farms and a small number of dwellings. Although the exact date of construction is unknown, Brimstage Hall is believed to have been built between the 12th century and 14th century, making it one of the oldest buildings on Merseyside. Originally the site was enclosed by a moat and high embankment. The building's first known occupants were Sir Hugh Hulse and his wife. The original tower (possibly a tower house) was constructed in 1398 when Sir Hugh and his wife were granted the right to construct a chapel. The tower still stands, but the original hall to which it was attached has gone, replaced by 16th century extensions and a 19th century north wing. Nowadays, the Hall, which retains many of its original mediæval features, has been converted to house shops and businesses in its main courtyard and is seen as an important local landmark. Brimstage Hall is a grade I listed building (English Heritage Building ID: 215346 http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-215346-brimstage-hall-and-tower-#.VfHJA3mFOHt British Listed Buildings).
